< Deuteronomy 26 >
1 “Tukun kowos muta tari fin facl se su LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos ac oakwuki we,
And it shall be when thou comest into the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein,
2 kais sie suwos enenu in filiya fahko se meet ke kosrani lowos nu in sie fotoh, ac kowos fah usla ke kowos som nu ke acn sefanna LEUM GOD lowos El sulela tuh mwet uh in alu nu sel we.
that thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which thou shalt bring of thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and shalt put it in a basket, and shalt go unto the place that Jehovah thy God will choose to cause his name to dwell there;
3 Som nu yurin mwet tol su orekma in pacl sac ac fahk nu sel, ‘Inge nga lungse fahkak nu sin LEUM GOD luk lah nga utyak nu in facl se su El wuleang nu sin papa matu tumasr mu El ac ase nu sesr.’
and thou shalt come unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto Jehovah thy God, that I am come unto the land that Jehovah swore unto our fathers to give us.
4 “Na mwet tol sac el fah eis fotoh sac, ac likiya ye mutun loang lun LEUM GOD lom.
And the priest shall take the basket out of thy hand, and set it down before the altar of Jehovah thy God.
5 Na kom fah fahk kas inge ye mutun LEUM GOD: ‘Papa matu tumuk el sie mwet Aram su takusrkasr ac usla sou lal nu Egypt in muta we. Elos tuh mwet na pu ke pacl se elos som nu we, na tok elos orala sie mutunfacl na lulap ac ku.
And thou shalt speak and say before Jehovah thy God, A perishing Aramaean was my father, and he went down to Egypt with a few, and sojourned there, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.
6 Mwet Egypt uh orekut arulana koluk ac sap ku nu sesr in orekma oana mwet kohs.
And the Egyptians evil-entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage;
7 Na kut wowoyak ac suk kasru sin LEUM GOD lun papa matu tumasr. El porongekut ac liye lupan keok, orekma upa, ac ongoiya lasr.
and we cried to Jehovah, the God of our fathers, and Jehovah heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression;
8 Ke ku lulap lal El molikutla liki Egypt. El orala mwenmen ac ma usrnguk, oayapa mwe aksangeng puspis.
and Jehovah brought us forth out of Egypt with a powerful hand, and with a stretched-out arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders;
9 El uskutme ac ase sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we.
and he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey!
10 Inge nga use nu sin LEUM GOD fahko se meet ke kosrani ma El ase nu sik.’ “Na filiya fotoh sacn ye mutun LEUM GOD ac alu nu sel we.
And now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruits of the land, which thou, Jehovah, hast given me. And thou shalt set it down before Jehovah thy God, and worship before Jehovah thy God.
11 Kaksakin ma wo nukewa ma LEUM GOD lom El sot nu sum ac sou lom; ac lela mwet Levi ac mwetsac su muta inmasrlowos in wi kowos akfulatyal.
And thou shalt rejoice in all the good that Jehovah thy God hath given to thee, and to thy house, thou, and the Levite, and the stranger that is in thy midst.
12 “Yac tolu nukewa kom in sang sie tafu singoul ke ma kom kosrani nu sin mwet Levi, mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal, ac katinmas, tuh in acn nukewa elos muta we elos fah ku in akfalye enenu lalos ke mwe mongo. Ke kom orala tari,
When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thy produce in the third year, the year of tithing, thou shalt give it to the Levite, to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat in thy gates, and be filled;
13 na kom fah fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, ‘Wangin ma lula ke sie tafu singoul ma mutal su srakna oan in lohm sik. Nga sang nu sin mwet Levi, mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal, ac katinmas, oana ke kom sapkin nu sik. Nga tiana seakos ku mulkunla kutena ma kom sapkin ke sie tafu singoul.
and thou shalt say before Jehovah thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of the house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandment which thou hast commanded me; I have not transgressed nor forgotten [any] of thy commandments:
14 Nga tia kangla kutena ma kac ke pacl nga eoksra. Nga tia usla kutena ma kac liki lohm sik ke pacl nga tia nasnas, ac nga tia sang kutena ma kac tuh in sie mwe kisa nu ke mwet misa. LEUM GOD, nga akos kom na. Nga oru ma nukewa kom sapkin in orek ke sie tafu singoul in ma luk.
I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I brought away thereof in uncleanness, nor given thereof for a dead person; I have hearkened to the voice of Jehovah my God; I have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.
15 Ngeta liki acn mutal sum inkusrao, ac akinsewowoye mwet lom, mwet Israel. Akinsewowoye pac facl wolana ac kasrup fohk we ma kom ase nu sesr, oana kom tuh wuleang nu sin papa matu tumasr meet ah.
Look down from thy holy habitation, from the heavens, and bless thy people Israel, and the land that thou hast given us as thou didst swear unto our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey!
16 “Misenge LEUM GOD lowos El sapkin nu suwos tuh kowos in akos ma sap lal nukewa. Ouinge kowos in oaru in akos ke insiowos nufon.
This day Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee to do these statutes and ordinances; and thou shalt keep and do them with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
17 Misenge kowos fahkak tari lah LEUM GOD El God lowos. Kowos wulela pac in aksol, in liyaung ma sap lal nukewa, ac in oru ma nukewa El sapkin.
Thou hast this day accepted Jehovah to be thy God, and to walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and to hearken unto his voice;
18 Misenge LEUM GOD El eis kowos tuh kowos in mwet lal sifacna, oana ke El tuh wuleot nu suwos; ac El sapkin tuh kowos in akos ma sap lal nukewa.
and Jehovah hath accepted thee this day to be a people of possession to him, as he hath told thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his commandments,
19 El fah akfulatye kowos yohk liki kutena mutunfacl saya ma El orala, ac kowos fah oru tuh Inel in kaksakinyuk ac sunakinyuk. Kowos fah mwet lal sifacna, oana ma El wulela.”
so that he should make thee high above all the nations which he hath made, in praise and in name and in honour; and that thou shouldest be a holy people to Jehovah thy God, as he hath said.
